Inspiration in a baking tin

The app contains a selection of digitally enhanced projects from the series of best-selling books by Karen Tack and Alan Richardson. It's a treasure trove of cupcake ideas for young and old alike.

Eye-popping videos

Each cupcake project features a charming animation short, like the one with a polar bear catching his dinner with—what else?—a fishing rod made from yellow licorice lace and a Pocky stick, of course. So. Cute.

Art and craft in frosting

Each project contains detailed written and photographed steps accompanied by helpful voiceovers—so you can't go wrong.

In-depth how-to

Never dipped a cupcake? Not to worry. A detailed technique video shows you just how to do it—and there are technique videos for many other cupcake-enhancing tricks as well.
